Adequate financial management contributes to making the right decisions, as well as planning the school's operations in the future. Ultimately, effective financial management affects all aspects of the school's operations, i.e. employees involved in the educational process, students and the quality of education offered to them. The subject of the work is to review the budget savings planning strategy and analyze the implementation of the Elementary School budget in the first half of 2023.
